Field placement on CiviCase Edit Activity form is confusing
January 30, 2011, 09:14:19 pm
The 3 fields 'Duration', 'Status', and 'Priority' are placed differently on the form for editing CiviCase Activities, compared to the form for ordinary Activities. The difference is both unnecessary and confusing. (See attachments.)

The fields are not only placed differently, but their placement on the CiviCase screen is confusing: the fields are indented under "Schedule Follow-up" tab. To a new or casual user, it appears like these fields are related to follow-up activities.

Can the sequence of fields common to both forms be made the same, please?

Thanks,
Ken

I think this is very similar to this http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,14012.0.html

Note that since the unique CSS classes were added in 3.something you can move things around by inserting some jquery during the buildform hook.
